<h1>Format: Graph dialog box</h1>
<p>You can format several aspects of a graph report using the Format: Graph 
 dialog box:</p>
<ul type="disc" class="whs1">
	
<li class=p><p>Format the look and feel of the 
<a href="Display_and_format_series.htm">graph's 
 series</a>. For example, you can change the color and transparency of 
 bars in a bar graph or pie slices in a pie graph.</p></li>
	
<li class=p><p>Format the graph's titles, axis labels, and legend.</p></li>
	
<li class=p><p>Apply a 
<a href="Selecting_a_graph_style.htm">graph 
 style and sub-style</a>.</p></li>
	
<li class=p><p>Format the 
<a href="Format_number_values.htm">display 
 of number values</a> on the graph.</p></li>
	
<li class=p><p>
<a href="Graph_Auto_Arrange.htm">Rearrange the contents</a> 
 of the graph using Auto Arrange.</p></li>
	
<li class=p><p>Create 
<a href="Tooltip_labels_for_data_points.htm">tooltip 
 labels</a> for specific data points.</p></li>
	
<li class=p><p>Adjust the 
<a href="Adjust_graph_scaling.htm">scaling</a> 
 of the graph. For example, you can determine how many bars of a bar graph 
 are displayed at a time.</p></li>
</ul>
<p>If DHTML is disabled, you use the Format: Graph panel.</p>
<h2>To access the Format: Graph dialog box</h2>
<ol start="1" type="1" class="whs2">
	
<li class=p><p class="whs3">Run a report, and from the 
 <span style="font-weight: bold;"><B>Home </B></span>menu, select Graph or Grid 
 and Graph view.</p></li>
	
<li style=" font-weight: normal; " class=p><p class="whs4">Right-click 
 the graph and select <span style="font-weight: bold;"><B>Format</B></span><span>. 
 </span>The Format: Graph dialog box is displayed. </p></li>
	<ul type="disc" class="whs1">
		
<li class=p><p>If DHTML is disabled, click <span style="font-weight: bold;"><B>Go</B></span>. 
 The Format: Graph panel opens.</p></li>
	</ul>
</ol>
